  • In this study, examining the relationships among age, culture, training in the fine arts, the technical and aesthetic properties of drawings, and realized artistic giftedness, the researchers intermixed the juvenile drawings executed by critically acclaimed artists with artworks executed by contemporary North American and Chinese North American children. When judges from the North American culture and from the Chinese North American culture, blind to this mix, assessed the drawings, assessments made by the representatives of both cultures were more alike than they were different. Only the North American judges' assessments, however, suggest that the art students' life drawings were more technically and aesthetically successful, and more creative, on the average, than the non-art students' drawings. These judges also gave the juvenilia the highest scores in technical skill and the lowest scores in creativity independent of technical skill and aesthetic success. Conclusions and implications stress the role of technical skill in the development of artistic potential. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)

  • Studies of drawings by young art students, nonart students, and children who realized their potential for artistic giftedness in adulthood provide clear evidence regarding the effects of advancing knowledge on the development of artistic talent and creativity in children. Focusing on the nature of this artistic experience and developing expertise, this chapter argues that artistic creativity does emerge from measurable interactions between advancing knowledge and visual information processing. Furthermore, the relationships among advanced knowledge in the visual arts, the processing of visual information (i.e., problem finding and reasoning), and creative productivity depend on the task, the behavior monitored, the phase of developing talent, and the expertise that educational intervention can afford. Embracing Gruber's evolving systems approach, a description emerges of the interplay among the young artist's purposeful work, affect, and knowledge of traditional visual arts conventions. The discussion of the early development of artistic talent and creativity articulates the yields of both quantitative and qualitative studies. Studies of the artistic development of groups of children stand against current theories and practice in art education. Identifiable differences do emerge within the context of case studies showing the early roots of children's artistic talent and creativity. The case study of a young artist named Eric later in this chapter is used to exemplify these points. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: chapter)
